One of the most iconic and reliable bronzers you’ll ever find, the Nars Laguna has long cemented its place in the holy grail category because of its beautiful, buildable shade that suits most skin tones.

Shimmertint, part of Colourette’s tint collection, is a long-wearing, multi-use liquid highlighter that melts into skin for an instant luminosity. Lightweight and blendable, this highlighting tint give the distinct Filipina complexion a healthy glow if used minimally and a luminescent highlight that can be seen from a distance. It’s characterized by a fragrance that smells like vanilla candy but the sweetness is so subtle, it’s only noticeable when you twist open the bottle. It can be used in a multitude of ways. As a highlighter and illuminator, it’s possible to blend into your favorite foundation for a bright overall glow-up, dab on top of makeup for a hint of highlight wherever you need it, or use it on bare skin for a healthy-looking glow. It can also be used as a liquid eyeshadow for that barely-there shimmer. Lazada, Shopee, Colourette website
This duo is one of Sunnies Face's most well formulated products. The balm gives a dewy finish without the oily or sticky feeling (it is NOT like lip balm!). The balm provides a certain hold that’s comfortable and won’t easily melt away or transfer. The blur end is also true to its claim, it’s nearly as good as a photo filter, smoothening out and blurring shine as would dimethicone primers, only it comes in a much better packaging and applicator. sunniesface.com
While it may look intimidating in the pan, Stila’s Heaven’s Hue Highlighter melts into the skin for a very natural-looking glow. Its unique, bouncy formula gives the skin a soft lit-from-within look. You could go for the shade Kitten for your no-makeup makeup looks, but we recommend the shade Transcendence—an opalescent pink—for a more ethereal glow. Rustan's

This OG tint is still a winning tint. This tint has been around for decades, and has gone through improvements in formulation, shades, and packaging. For days we only want a flush of color, we use this watery gel tint on our inner lips and cheeks. It can also go under gloss or foundation for a subdued blush.

This feels like a cream, mousse, powder blush altogether, which is the best thing about it. It's made for finger application with its "whipped" and fluffy consistency making it so easy to blend and diffuse over the cheeks. This shade is what we feel is most universal and pleasing having a deeper hue and being more pigmented. It's a new release for Nars this year, and we're really hoping it makes it to the permanent line.

Achieve a healthy looking glow or the post workout dewy flush (without working out!) with the ModCon Liquid-Gel Blush by KVD Beauty, an all-new groundbreaking formulation from the clean, vegan beauty brand we’ve loved for years.
We could go on and on about why we love this blush, but what tops our list is how it blends to a beautiful natural flush while giving you ultimate control in terms of pigment. With this, unlike many liquid blush formulations, you will not have to worry about blending right away because it would stain into a blot you can’t diffuse if you wait longer than a second to blend. This gel texture lets you diffuse the color where you want it, build and spread till you get the flush you want, which makes it foolproof and perfect for even for newbies. We love the texture, and we think it’s what makes this blush stand out and worth trying. It’s shimmer-free so it will look and feel like second skin.

You’d think that mask protocols would discourage the use of cream blush, and yet this one by Rare Beauty has become one of the brand’s most bestselling products. It has a unique liquid-like cream formula that—as its name suggests—melts into your skin to give you a natural, sheer flush. While you can apply this blush with your fingertips, we suggest applying it using Rare Beauty’s Liquid Touch Foundation Brush for a smoother and more seamless finish.

This new Hermes blush is every bit as you'd expect from an indulgent pick—from exquisite packaging to buttery-smooth formula. This pressed powder blush features subtle shades with buildable intensity. Although intense isn't really a word we would associate this with because the rosey and peachy hues are really more muted and delicate. This blush beautifully and evenly blends over the cheeks with a brush and lasts all day; a testament to its excellent formulation. The packaging and details make it even more splurge-worthy with the gold emblem on its refillable compact and the blush texture resembling the surface of silk twill. We said this before when Hermes debuted with a line of lipsticks—the brand really has got to be in the business of beauty. Rustan's
A winner in form and function, this superchic loose blush comes with a puff stick that looks like cotton candy in a luxurios pink packaging. It holds just the right amount of pigment, delivering a rosy, delicate shimmer over the cheeks. It also has a light floral fragrance. Sephora.ph
Chanel’s innovative and patented microfluidic technology is featured in this unique blush format—a serum-like fluid with microdroplets of color that melt into the skin for a glowy, subtle flush. The color is buildable although a little really goes a long way. We find this truly hydrating as it claims and to work best on bare skin. It gives that natural looking color and glow. Rustan's
